Now, TRNSMT have announced they’ll be back next year – announcing dates as well as putting early bird tickets on sale

“After an incredible first year at Glasgow Green, we are excited to announce that TRNSMT Festival will return to Glasgow Green on 6-8 July 2018,” they said in an official statement. “Stay tuned for more information.”

When NME asked organisers for a response as to whether T In The Park would be taking place next year, a spokesman said that there was “currently no update” on the future of the event.

“We do events all over Scotland and are always looking at sites but for ‘T in the Park’ specifically, no we are not looking at anywhere else at the moment,” said organiser and chief executive of DF Concerts Geoff Ellis. “We are confident and hopeful but we are still in the throes of looking at everything.”

Adding that the next festival would focus on rock bands instead of electronic dance music because “what we have seen in recent years is more 16 and 17-year-olds going a bit crazy”, Ellis went on: “So let’s make the campsite over 18 going forward.

“It does mean families can’t come to the event like they have done traditionally since 1994. But that is something we have to do.”

Ellis continued: “You do all you can when you are organising an event to try and keep people safe. You work closely with the police and the authorities to try and manage audience behaviour.

“Generally most people do behave themselves, aren’t getting drunk or taking drugs. That’s how most festivals are. But obviously you have issues to deal with and they are at every single nightclub and pub.

“’T in the Park’ has been a rite of passage since 1994 but the core attendance has always been between 18 and 24.”
